Quick question: Double weapons cost

[Veldrane]

As the title says.. ..in the DMG (Page 184) it's stated that every head of the weapon has separated magical bonus. Ok. Now, I'm going to buy a pair of Bracers of Striking (MoF), that allow to place weapon special abilities on your unarmed attacks. The cost is said to be treated as with double weapons.
Now, do I pay 1.350 gp (bracers) + (2.000 gp (+1 ability) x 2 (double weapon)), thus paying 5.350 gp for, let's say, Bracers of striking with the Flaming ability, or do I have to pay double price for the second "head" of a double weapon, thus, speaking of Bracers of Striking, paying 1.350 gp (bracers) + 2.000 (1st head) + (2.000 x 2 (second head)), thus paying a total of 7.350 gp?

thnx in advance..

Second heads of double weapons don't cost double because they are treated as separate weapons and enchanted separately. The bracers have to have the same enchantment on each head so simply pay double the cost on any enhancement ie 4000 + bracers for a +1 enhancement.
